New science with new 'eyes':
opportunities and challenges using free electron laser radiation
and
1st TIMEX project collaboration meeting
Camerino 29 - 30 settembre 2008
Palazzo Ducale - Sala della Muta
The development of novel sources for the generation of femtosecond
pulses in the UV/x-ray range of unprecedented peak brilliance, opens new
opportunities for scientific and technological research in a broad field of
disciplines including material science, structural biology, physics, chemistry,
medicine and nanotechnology.
FERMI@Elettra (Free Electron laser Radiation for Multidisciplinary
Investigations at Elettra) is a single-pass FEL user-facility covering the
wavelength range from 100 nm (12 eV) to 10 nm (124 eV), presently under
construction next to the third-generation synchrotron radiation facility
ELETTRA in Trieste, Italy.

Riunione dei partecipanti al progetto TIMEX
The event features a series of seminars giving a general presentation of the
ELETTRA laboratory, the FERMI@Elettra project and an overview of the main
scientific opportunities and research proposals.
Among those, the TIMEX project, recently funded through a collaboration
between Sincrotrone Trieste and the University of Camerino, for the design
and construction of an end-station to investigate metastable and/or excited
states of matter under extreme conditions.
The instrument will exploit the unique intensity and energy of the
Fermi@Elettra FEL beam for an efficient ultrafast heating of most bulk-like
dense samples, in two classes of experiments: 1) creation and investigation
of warm dense matter (WDM); 2) phase transitions occurring in metastable
states under extreme conditions.
